Heres a bit of an update on the bike. I replaced the rear tire with the2.75-17 shinko 241 trials tire, it does say Golden Boy on it, but is no longer advertised as such and the ride is much better than before, not so good in the snow ;) , but I will soon be replacing the front tire once the title is...

I was wondering if any of you have tried the zip tie trick on a tubed tire, I know people do this with tubeless tires, but the link shows a picture of someone doing it on a dirt bike tire http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=893403. I'm a little worred about pinching a tube even though th...

Thanks for the information guys, Laurie,I'll have to look into the Hodaka Club. Rick, The tire information calculator is really detailed, I wish I had it earlier! After scouring the internet for sizing information i found the info right on the dang tire order form http://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/T...

Thanks for the info Pep, I think I'm going to order the 3.00-17 shinko 244 for the rear, it looks like it would be a better match and perhaps a little more durable according to some reviews. I think i'm going to clean up the tank today, parts should be here thursday and I ordered extra tubes just in...

Alright, after shopping around for some other things I need, the only 2.75-17 tire I can find is a shinko 241 trials tire, which is dot approved. Since I have a pretty agressive knobby on the front (2.75-17), I am also looking at shinko 244 dual sport tire which is only available in 3.00-17, this on...

Hello, I've posted a few other times on the forum, and looked around for a few of these questions, but I figure they might be pretty easy for most of you on this board, so thanks for looking 1. I have an ace 90, how do I tell what year it is? I have the serial number 2. The rear tire it came with ke...

Jake, Did you have any problems with rubbing toward the front of the bike with the oversized rear? I did, had a 3.00-17 on the rear but that may have had to do with a wonky 40 year old tire, it was rubbing on the chain guard. Also, did you use a bead lock on your rear tire? I keep tearing valve stem...

Hello again, I have an Ace 90 and was wondering if using the smaller "street" sprocket requires a different chain length than the large "trail" sprocket I currently have in use? I've never seen a setup like this one, and I haven't looked too closely at the chain, but was thinking...

Thanks a lot for the info, I see there is a lot of dead links on google tied to this site. The only question I have left is if the dead battery i currently have will safely soak up enough voltage, even if it does not hold a charge or very very little? Does it just have to be there to complete the ci...

Hello, I have a few questions about what I believe is a 68 Ace 90 First: Do any of you know what bulb(s) will work for the headlight? I cut the bulb out of my sealed unit and am wondering if there is a bulb anyone has used by epoxying in the old lens? I would buy a new sealed light but they seem imp...
